This is not limited in the embodiments of this application.

FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of an application scenario according to an embodiment of this application. A communications system in FIG. 1 may include a terminal device 10 and a network device 20. The network device 20 is configured to provide a communications service to the terminal device 10 and access a core network, and the terminal device 10 accesses the network by searching for a synchronization signal, a broadcast signal, and the like sent by the network device 20, thereby communicating with the network. An arrow shown in FIG. 1 may indicate uplink/downlink transmission performed over a cellular link between the terminal device 10 and the network device 20.

For an uplink signal, power control of a terminal device is of great significance for power conservation and suppression of inter-cell interference. Therefore, the uplink power control is a focus in LTE. The uplink power control in a cell includes control of powers of a PUSCH, a PUCCH, and an SRS.

Two uplink transmission manners, namely, a codebook-based transmission manner and a non-codebook-based transmission manner, are introduced in NR. For the codebook-based transmission manner, an uplink beam used in transmission is notified to a terminal device by using beam indication information in scheduling information. When using different transmitting beams, the terminal device needs to use different power control parameters. The beam indication information is associated with an uplink power control parameter. The corresponding power control parameter may be determined by using the beam indication information. The association relationship is notified to the terminal device in advance by using radio resource control (RRC) signaling.

For the non-codebook-based uplink transmission, a network side may configure a corresponding CSI-RS resource for an uplink SRS or PUSCH. The terminal device obtains downlink channel information based on the CSI-RS resource, then obtains uplink channel information based on the downlink channel information and channel reciprocity, and calculates a precoding matrix of the uplink SRS or PUSCH according to the uplink channel information. An uplink beam used in transmission may be correspondingly obtained by the terminal device by using uplink and downlink beams. That is, the terminal device may obtain a beam of transmitting of an uplink signal by using a receive beam of a downlink signal, and does not require a beam indication on the network side. In this case, how the terminal device determines corresponding power control parameters for different transmitting beams is an issue.

FIG. 2 is a schematic block diagram of a signal transmission method 100 according to an embodiment of this application. As shown in FIG. 2, the method 100 includes some or all of the following content:

S110: A terminal device determines CSI-RS resource indication information corresponding to a target uplink signal.

S120: The terminal device determines a power control parameter of the target uplink signal according to the CSI-RS resource indication information.

S130: The terminal device determines a transmit power of the target uplink signal according to the power control parameter.

S140: The terminal device sends the target uplink signal to a network device according to the transmit power.

Specifically, the network device may preconfigure or specify in a protocol one or more CSI-RS resources. Different beams may be used for CSI-RSs sent on different CSI-RS resources, and the network device may preconfigure or specify in a protocol a correspondence between one or more CSI-RS resources and a power control parameter or a correspondence between one or more pieces of CSI-RS resource indication information and a power control parameter. That is, each CSI-RS resource or each piece of CSI-RS resource indication information may correspond to a group of independent power control parameters. The network device may indicate, to the terminal device, a power control parameter corresponding to a CSI-RS resource or CSI-RS resource indication information to transmit the target uplink signal. The terminal device may make a particular adjustment based on the power control parameter indicated by the network device to determine the power control parameter of the target uplink signal or may directly determine the power control parameter indicated by the network device as the power control parameter of the target uplink signal. The terminal device may further determine the transmit power of the target uplink signal according to the determined power control parameter, to send the target uplink signal to the network device according to the determined transmit power.

Therefore, in the signal transmission method in this embodiment of this application, a transmit power of a target uplink signal is determined by referring to a power control parameter corresponding to CSI-RS resource indication information sent by a network device, thereby helping improve the accuracy of uplink power control, so that system transmission performance can be improved.

The target uplink signal may be a PUSCH, a PUCCH, an SRS or the like. The type of the target uplink signal is not limited in this embodiment of this application. The technical solution in this embodiment of this application may be used to determine a transmit power for any uplink signal.

Further, the target uplink signal is a PUSCH precoded based on a non-codebook or is an SRS used to obtain a transmission parameter of a PUSCH precoded based on a non-codebook. That is, the PUSCH is transmitted in a non-codebook transmission manner. For example, after receiving CSI-RS resource indication information, the terminal device may obtain downlink channel information according to a CSI-RS resource indicated by the CSI-RS resource indication information, then obtain uplink channel information based on the downlink channel information and channel reciprocity, and calculate precoded information of the PUSCH according to the uplink channel information. The terminal device may obtain a beam of transmitting of the PUSCH by using beam correspondence. That is, a receive beam for receiving a CSI-RS by the terminal device may be used to obtain a beam of transmitting for sending a PUSCH. The SRS may be transmitted in a non-codebook-based transmission manner. The target uplink signal may further be an SRS used to obtain a transmission parameter of the PUSCH.

Optionally, in this embodiment of this application, a CSI-RS resource indicated by the CSI-RS resource indication information is used to obtain a precoding matrix or a beam of transmitting of the target uplink signal or is used to obtain a precoding matrix or a beam of transmitting of a first SRS corresponding to the target uplink signal.

How to use a CSI-RS resource indicated by CSI-RS resource indication information to obtain a precoding matrix or a beam of transmitting of a PUSCH has been described above. The method is also applicable to any uplink signal, for example, the PUCCH or SRS.

Further, the first SRS is an SRS used to obtain a transmission parameter of the target uplink signal, or the first SRS is an SRS transmitted on an SRS resource indicated by SRS resource indication information carried in DCI used to schedule the target uplink signal.

Optionally, in this embodiment of this application, transmission parameters of the various uplink signals may all be obtained by using the first SRS. The transmission parameter may include at least one of the following information: a used frequency domain resource, layer number, precoding matrix, modulation and coding scheme, and a beam of transmitting. That is, after receiving CSI-RS resource indication information, the terminal device may determine a precoding matrix or a beam of transmitting of the first SRS according to a CSI-RS resource indicated by the CSI-RS resource indication information and channel reciprocity. After the terminal device sends the first SRS based on the precoding matrix or a beam of transmitting. A network side may determine the transmission parameter of the target uplink signal according to the first SRS, and indicate the determined transmission parameter to the terminal device, or schedule the terminal device according to the determined transmission parameter. The first SRS is used to obtain the transmission parameter of the target uplink signal. This may be implemented by making a quantity of antenna ports of the first SRS equal to a quantity of transmission ports of the target uplink signal.

In addition, the target uplink signal is associated with the SRS, or the DCI used to schedule the target uplink signal may carry the SRS resource indication information for indicating the SRS resource. Generally, the SRS resource indication information carried in the DCI is used to indicate the SRS resource associated with the target uplink signal. The SRS transmitted on the resource is the first SRS.

In this embodiment of this application, the “corresponding” in “the CSI-RS resource indication information corresponding to the target uplink signal” may indicate that the network device and the terminal device specify in advance or the network device configures that an indication manner belongs to a specific uplink signal. For example, it may be specified that a specific field in DCI used to schedule a PUSCH is the CSI-RS resource indication information corresponding to the PUSCH.

In addition, a person skilled in the art understands that the CSI-RS resource indication information may be indication information used to indicate a CSI-RS resource. For example, the network device and the terminal device specify in advance four CSI-RS resources, and specify in advance that two bits are used to indicate the four CSI-RS resources. Specifically, Indication information corresponding to a CSI-RS resource 1 is 00, indication information corresponding to a CSI-RS resource 2 is 01, indication information corresponding to a. CSI-RS resource 3 is 10, and indication information corresponding to a. CSI-RS resource 4 is 11.

It should be understood that, the power control parameter in this embodiment of this application may be any one or any combination of parameters in a calculation formula of the transmit power. For example, the calculation formula of the transmit power generally includes a maximum allowable transmit power of the terminal device, a power offset, a transmit bandwidth of an uplink signal on a subframe, a target receive power, a path loss compensation factor, a closed-loop power adjustment amount, a path loss, and the like. That is, in this embodiment of this application, a group of power control parameters corresponding to each CSI-RS resource or each piece of CSI-RS resource indication information includes a value of at least one of parameter.

An example in which the target uplink signal is a PUSCH and an example in which the target uplink signal is an SRS are separately used to describe below in detail a manner of carrying a CSI-RS in this embodiment of this application.

Optionally, in this embodiment of this application, the method further includes: receiving, by the terminal device, first information sent by the network device, where the first information carries the CSI-RS resource indication information; and the determining, by a terminal device, CSI-RS resource indication information corresponding to a target uplink signal includes: determining, by the terminal device, the CSI-RS resource indication information in the first information.

It should be understood that, the first information may be, for example, high layer signaling such as RRC signaling and media access control (MAC) signaling, DCI signaling, and system information.

Embodiment 1

If the target uplink signal is a PUSCH, the CSI-RS resource indication information is the CSI-RS resource indication information configured by the network device for the PUSCH, the CSI-RS resource indication information may be carried in DCI for scheduling the PUSCH.

Embodiment 2

If the target uplink signal is a PUSCH and the CSI-RS resource indication information is the CSI-RS resource indication information configured by the network device for the SRS corresponding to the PUSCH, the CSI-RS resource indication information may be carried in downlink signaling used by the network device to configure, trigger or activate transmission of the SRS. Specifically, if the SRS is a periodic SRS, RRC signaling used to configure transmission of the SRS may carry the CSI-RS resource indication information. If the SRS is a non-periodic SRS, DCI used to trigger transmission of the SRS may carry the CSI-RS resource indication information. In this case, the transmission resource of the DCI and the CSI-RS resource indicated by the CSI-RS resource indication information may be included in a same slot. If the SRS is a quasi-continuous SRS, MAC signaling used to activate transmission of the SRS or RRC signaling may carry the CSI-RS resource indication information.

Embodiment 3

If the target uplink signal is an SRS, the CSI-RS resource indication information may be carried in downlink signaling used by the network device to configure, trigger or activate transmission of the SRS. Specifically, if the SRS is a periodic SRS, RRC signaling used to configure transmission of the SRS may carry the CSI-RS resource indication information. If the SRS is a non-periodic SRS, DCI used to trigger transmission of the SRS may cam/the CSI-RS resource indication information. In this case, the transmission resource of the DCI and the CSI-RS resource indicated by the CSI-RS resource indication information may be included in a same slot. If the SRS is a quasi-continuous SRS, MAC signaling used to activate transmission of the SRS or RRC signaling may carry the CSI-RS resource indication information.

Optionally, in this embodiment of this application, the method further includes: receiving, by the terminal device, configuration information sent by the network device, where the configuration information is used to indicate a correspondence between at least one CSI-RS resource and at least one group of power control parameters, the at least one CSI-RS resource includes the CSI-RS resource indicated by the CSI-RS resource indication information, and each group of power control parameters of the at least one group of power control parameters includes a value of at least one power control parameter; and the determining, by the terminal device, a power control parameter of the target uplink signal according to the CSI-RS resource indication information includes: determining, by the terminal device, the power control parameter according to the CSI-RS resource indication information and the configuration information.

Optionally, in this embodiment of this application, the method further includes: receiving, by the terminal device, configuration information sent by the network device, where the configuration information is used to indicate a correspondence between at least one piece of CSI-RS resource indication information and at least one group of power control parameters, the at least one piece of CSI-RS resource indication information includes the CSI-RS resource indication information, and each group of power control parameters of the at least one group of power control parameters includes a value of at least one power control parameter; and the determining, by the terminal device, a power control parameter of the target uplink signal according to the CSI-RS resource indication information includes: determining, by the terminal device, the power control parameter according to the CSI-RS resource indication information and the configuration information.

Specifically, the network side preconfigures values of a group of power control parameters corresponding to each of the at least one CSI-RS resource or each piece of the at least one piece of CSI-RS resource indication information, so that the terminal device may determine values of a corresponding group of power control parameters according to the currently indicated CSI-RS resource or the current CSI-RS resource indication information. Herein, one group of power control parameters may include only one power control parameter, for example, an open-loop power control parameter or a path loss value, or may include a plurality of parameters, for example, open-loop power control parameters and path loss values.

For example, the network device and the terminal device specify in advance four CSI-RS resources, and the four CSI-RS resources respectively have independent power control parameters. In this case, the network device and the terminal device may further specify in advance that two bits are used to indicate the four CSI-RS resources. Specifically, indication information corresponding to a CSI-RS resource 1 is 00, indication information corresponding to a CSI-RS resource 2 is 01, indication information corresponding to a CSI-RS resource 3 is 10, and indication information corresponding to a CSI-RS resource 4 is 11. That is, the network device may configure that 00 corresponds to a power control parameter group 1, 01 corresponds to a power control parameter group 2, 10 corresponds to a power control parameter group 3, and 11 corresponds to a power control parameter group 4. The network device may also configure that the CSI-RS resource 1 corresponds to the power control parameter group 1, the CSI-RS resource 2 corresponds to the power control parameter group 2, the CSI-RS resource 3 corresponds to the power control parameter group 3, and the CSI-RS resource 4 corresponds to the power control parameter group 4. The power control parameter groups 1 to 4 correspond to different values of a same group of the power control parameters.

At least one of the CSI-RS resource and the CSI-RS resource indication information has a correspondence with the power control parameter. That is, after receiving the CSI-RS resource indication information, the terminal device determines, according to a value of the indication information, the power control parameter corresponding to the value. Alternatively, after receiving the CSI-RS resource indication information, the terminal device may first determine, according to the indication information, a CSI-RS resource indicated by the indication information, and further determine, according to the CSI-RS resource, the power control parameter corresponding to the CSI-RS resource. This is not limited in this application.

Optionally, in this embodiment of this application, the power control parameter includes at least one piece of information of the following information: a path loss value used to calculate the transmit power, information about a downlink signal used to measure a path loss value used to calculate the transmit power, an open-loop power control parameter, and a closed-loop power control parameter.

The information about a downlink signal used to measure a path loss value used to calculate the transmit power may be considered as path loss reference association information. That is, the downlink signal may be a subset of downlink signals used to estimate a path loss of the target uplink signal. For example, path loss reference association information of a PUSCH may be downlink pilot signals that are in a configuration set of downlink pilot signals and are used to measure a path loss, so as to estimate a path loss of the PUSCH. The downlink signal may be a downlink synchronous signal block (SSB), a CSI-RS, a physical broadcast channel (PBCH) or a demodulation reference signal (DMRS). For example, the terminal device measures a downlink path loss based on the CSI-RS resource indicated by the CSI-RS resource indication information, so as to obtain the path loss value.
